If I had a flawlessly-working Time Machine -- would *you* JOIN me for THIS Journey?

Question

(This question is being asked in more than one relevant section, to enable more people to consider it.)

I'd set the machine for 50 years in the future, in hopes of finding that the USA again had a fair-minded, sensible and egalitarian U.S. Supreme Court -- the way it was BEFORE "President" Bush **destroyed** it -- which was at last systematically RESTORING personal liberties to Americans.

If that weren't the case yet, I'd set the machine to take me farther ahead, in 10-year increments, until I found a time when that were true... OR the USA had become an unthinkable tyranny (traceable back to Bush's unspeakable mistakes).

If THAT were the outcome, I'd set it for 1974 -- the year after the Emancipation of American girls and women (via Roe vs. Wade), and the year that Nixon resigned... and then RE-live the GOOD years: 1975-2000.

Considering **NO other variables**, would YOU take that journey if you could? And for those reasons?

To "turntable" and STEPHEN R" --

Thanks to our utterly worthless and perfidious "president," the US Supreme Court -- which has been an egalitarian defender of human rights and individual liberties -- has been DESTROYED for probably the next 50 years, minimum.

In 1973, it EMANCIPATED all girls and women from ever having to be FORCED to gestate UNwanted pregnancies to term against their will. (Which had been a very real form of rape!) This NEW court is likely to reverse that, and force us to quickly pass a "Freedom of Choice Amendment" to counter its hatefulness. We may also need to do the same thing, to enable gays to have EQUAL rights, including the right to marry their same-sex partners.

Thanks to Bush, we are standing at the abyss of tyranny, from which ONLY our capability to override the Court with Consitutional Amendments may be able to rescue us, and our freedoms.

You LIKE that situation? Bless your HATEFUL little pea-pickin' hyperconservative and loonish hearts!

Answer 1

I like your concept of checking out the future but if I couldn't find an acceptable outcome, I wouldn't go hide out in the past. I either return to the present or stay in the future and fight to correct all the tyranny and opression

Answer 2

Sure Id set ahead & see how much damage the Bush & the Dems did to America since 2007 alone.
See the US as a 3rd World debttor state OR still a Superpower Or plague ridden sick soceity.
Or Id Go Back 50 Years & plant Tech seeds for WW2 IE
Iphone, Ipod, celphones, Hybrid cars, computers & robots.
Improve the Allied War Cause.
Id restore the Supreme Court as is.
Id head to 1973 & block Roe vs Wade.
Id funel info about Civil Rights movement & deter Jesse Jackson from being in power.
Id help LBJ commence 24/7 Total bombing in No Vietnam for 1966-69 years combined.

Oh Id sue the Dems for destroying our liberties since they write the laws in Congress NOT the White House.
Id Impeach Pelosi & Boxer, Fienstien, Ted Kennedy & allies for Inactions to Our forces * aiding the enemy (Iran & Mexico drug gangs).

Answer 3

no...it is obvious to me that you are a wishful thinker...name one personal liberty taken away...tyranny you don't know the meaning of the word...i suggest you move to another part of the world for a few years where the definition of the word still exists...1974 i think was a mistake...it totally went against equal rights for men and women...and the gave the choice to kill the life they both created only to the woman...were is the justice and equality for men...
---addition---- i noticed that you still didn't address the mans right in the issue...rape is a totally different issue...but thanks for the name calling...i expect nothing less from a liberal with whom i disagree with...

Answer 4

No, becuase if I fast forwarded 50 years I would probably be dead.
